JUNE 20, 2012. TURNING 70 !!!

AND MY GARDENAID IS ALLREADY AT WORK !!!

SHE HAS A KID, BUT I COULDN´T SEE IT.  PROBABLY HIDING IN THE GRASS.

ADRESSE FORANDRING

SORRY ALL YOU OTHERS THAT IT IS IN NORWEGIAN.  I AM TELLING FOLKS THAT I HAVE MOVED AND WHERE TO VISIT ME AND WHERE MY LETTERS SHOULD GO.  ALSO HAVE A NEW TEL.NUMBER.

BACKATORP SPRINGTIME

LUCKY ME COMING DOWN FOR A WEEK AND  ALL THE DAFFODILLS, FORCYTIA AND CHERRYTREES IN BLOSSOM

SEEING MY PLACE FROM A VESPA-ANGLE

THE WEATHER WAS FAVORABLE FOR 5 DAYS AND LUCKILY MY "CLEARING-OUT-MIND" WAS STILL IN TOP GEAR

PLACED SOME OF MY PRODUCTS OUT IN THE OPEN.  IT WILL LOOK NICE EVEN WHEN IT IS RUSTY !!

NOT SURE IF MY WINERY SURPASSED THE WINTER

MY OUTDOOR TOILET IS NOW INHABITED

AND I WILL HAVE TO GET FUEL FOR THIS LAMP

MOVED THE WASHBASIN

A  BLACKBIRD-BABY

BUT ANOTHER BIRD MUST HAVE MADE ITS NEST IN MY BOOT

CHANGE OF THE LIVINGROOM

THE UNTRUE WIDEANGEL ADS FROM THE INTERNET

FIRST THING GETTING THE FRIDGE MOVED (AND YOU KNOW WHERE)

PAINTING THE WALLS AND CHANGING TO MORE NEUTRAL CURTAINS.  FULL ACTIVITY WHICH I LOVE!  LOOKS LIKE STEVE JOBS IS OVERLOOKING MY WORK FROM THE CIRCLE-SAW, HE PROBABLY KNOWS UP THERE THAT I WILL GET THE BIGGEST IMAC

PUT THE BOOKSHELVES STRAIGHT OUT FROM THE WALL (TO MAKE A LITTLE DININGROOM).  SNATCHED ALL THE CLOSETDOORS IN THE BED ROOM FOR THAT !!!

NOW FILLED WITH BOOKS

DECOMPOSED A MASSAGEBENCH FROM MY FORMER OFFICE, NOW GETTING A NEW LIFE AS LIVINGROOM

VOILA !!!  (IS THAT CORRECT SPELT, ANNE?)

MY AFRICAN DEER OVERLOOKING FROM THE CORNER

THE SITTING ROOM  (BY THE WAY WHEN I PUT UP THE PENDULE, IT STARTED GOING AT ONCE--THAT MUST BE A GOOD SIGN)

FROM THE WHITE RACK YOU SEE ON THE GREEN WALL IS A HUGE PROJECTOR-SCREEN HANGING.  I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SHOW MY FRIENDS PHOTO-SHOWS FROM MY COMING TRAVELS

CHANGE of the KITCHEN WALL

SO I GOT RID OF THE WHOLE LOWER SECTION

USED A WASHBASIN FROM MY WORKSHOP, A DRAWER-SECTION FROM MY DOCTORS OFFICE AND BOUGHT A NEW STOVE

AND A REAL WOOD BENCH FROM IKEA

I THINK YOU´VE SEEN THIS PHOTO BEFORE.  IT IS BEGINNING TO TAKE FORM.

CHANGED THE UPPER SECTION JUST ABOVE THE WASHBASIN SO THE DISHES CAN "DRIP-DRY"

I DON´T MIND DOING THE DISHES BY HAND--NOW WHEN NOT BEING A DOCTOR ANYMORE I HAVE TO GET CLEAN HANDS SOMETIMES !!!

PAINTING THE LOWER SECTION WITH A SIMILAR COLOR AS THE CURTAINS, I THINK THE KITCHEN WALL NOW FITS IN VERY WELL AND I HAVE ROOM FOR POTS AND PANS AND OTHER USEFUL THINGS.

CHANGE OF THE HALL

THE WAY IT WAS

PAINTED BLUE AND ADDED ANOTHER SHELF

MOVED THE FRIDGE TO THE HALL

MADE MORE SHELVES AND A PLACE FOR HANGING CLOTHES

A RED DOOR WITH A MIRROR ON IT ALSO REFLECTING

THIS BEAUTIFUL PICTURE OF KEITH GRANT.  BOTH THE FRIDGE AND THE BLUE COLOR GOES WELL WITH HIS NORTHERN LIGHT PAINTING

THE LAST TOUCH: AN ARNE JACOBSEN CHAIR WHICH I PAINTED WINE-RED TO MATCH THE CARPET

Winter-Spring in Oslo 2012

VERY VARIED WEATHER THIS LATE WINTER AND SPRING

STREET MUSICIANS EVERYWHERE

THIS IS WHERE ALL THE FLOWERS WERE IN JULY AFTER THE BOMB !!
